Definition: to cause someone to pay a tenth
Notes: In a number of languages there are problems involved in speaking of ‘a tenth,’ and accordingly there are difficulties in formulating expressions about ‘tithing.’ In some languages one may speak of ‘a tenth’ as ‘one part of ten parts’ or ‘one part together with nine parts.’ ‘To tithe’ may be rendered as ‘from ten parts to pay one part’ or ‘to pay one part and to keep nine parts.’
